The lazy river is a rare find in Jamaica and a hit with kids
Diamond Club butlers (when they show up) can reserve prime beach spots
Building 1 offers consistent ocean views unlike the sister property next door
クイックテイク: Currently shuttered until September 2026 for hurricane repairs, this resort was previously a noisy, high-energy family factory that nailed the water park but failed the food test.
@Newbietraveler によるレビュー: I stayed at Royalton Blue Waters and it was a total vibe! My room had a killer ocean view and a jacuzzi right next to the bed. The nightlife was honestly wild—I danced all night at the outdoor parties. It's the perfect mix of luxury and fun.

The hype
Great pools and beach, but the food is bland and the elevators are painfully slow.
Reality check
The 'Hideaway' adults-only section has significantly smaller rooms (400 sq ft) than the standard family side (570 sq ft)—you pay more for less space.
You need a pirate-themed water park to exhaust your children
You prioritize modern room aesthetics over authentic island vibes
You are booking for late 2026 and want a 'freshly renovated' feel
清潔さと保守管理
7.8
Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though 'missed spots' and late timing were common complaints pre-closure.
Bathroom hygiene: Modern rainfall showers, but reports of sliding doors coming off tracks and occasional sewage odors in drains.
Maintenance: The resort was showing signs of fatigue (peeling paint, broken ACs) before the hurricane forced the current renovation.
Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality; towels can be scratchy and sometimes hard to get replaced in the evenings.
Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh (signature scent), but damp/musty smells reported in some lower-level corridors.

知っておくと良いこと
The resort is in Falmouth (Trelawny), not Montego Bay proper—it's a 35-40 minute drive from the airport.
Reservations for the Zen teppanyaki restaurant are cutthroat; book immediately upon arrival.
Diamond Club upgrade is arguably worth it just for the exclusive beach area and lounge access.
持ち物
Insulated bubba keg (bars are busy, keeps drinks cold)
Strong bug spray (mosquitoes can be vicious in the evenings)
Earplugs (essential for early bedtimes)
ルームジニー
おすすめ
Diamond Club Building 1 (Blue Waters side) for larger floor plans (570 sq ft) and guaranteed ocean views
Top floor rooms to minimize overhead noise from dragging chairs
避けるべきお部屋
Swim-out rooms near the main pool/lazy river if you want privacy (everyone floats by and looks in)
Hideaway section rooms if you are claustrophobic (they are noticeably smaller)
ルームリクエストジニー – コピー&ペースト
“Requesting a high-floor room in Building 1 (Blue Waters side) away from the elevator banks. Please avoid connecting rooms due to noise concerns.”
FAQ と隠された便利な使い方
ご予約前に本当に知りたいことすべて
Is the hotel currently open?
No. It is closed for repairs following Hurricane Melissa and is scheduled to reopen September 15, 2026.
Is the Diamond Club worth the extra cost?
Yes, mostly for the separate check-in (lines are long) and the reserved beach section, though butler service is hit-or-miss.
Can I use the facilities at Royalton White Sands?
Yes, guests have full access to the adjacent White Sands property, including its pools and restaurants.
Is the beach water clear?
Generally yes, it's turquoise and calm, though seasonal seaweed can be an issue (staff usually cleans it daily).
How far is the airport?
Sangster International Airport (MBJ) is about 35-40 minutes away by car.
Are the rooms dated?
Blue Waters rooms are more modern than White Sands, but recent reviews noted wear and tear (broken fridges, sliding doors) prior to the 2026 closure.
インサイダー情報
✨
The 'Italian' restaurant (Grazie) is the only one open for lunch besides the buffet and jerk hut.
✨
Don't pay for the 'Hideaway' upgrade expecting a quiet oasis; it shares the same loud energy as the main resort.
✨
The lazy river tubes are often in short supply; grab one early in the morning and hold onto it.

💡The 'Jerk Hut' on the beach often runs out of chicken by 2 PM.
💡Room service can take up to 2 hours during peak times.
💡Sewage smells were occasionally reported in ground-floor hallways before the closure.
